Hi I am Student of IT, in Finland.
I would Like to get a New laptop and consider getting Macbook pro as a strong candidate.

Since I haven't used Macintosh Computers much I would like to ask, is it OK to get Mac for my programming career?!

I have to Study/ Program on Visual studio c++, Java, Mobile Java ( Using Net-Beans), Unix ( putty), Assembly language, Symbian/Symbian Mobile Programming ( on Carbide mode for Windows and also in Linux).

My Question is: is it possible to do Program these on Mac-OS, Environment?
I have been hearing a lot about VM & Boot-camp aswell. Will it be good enough to work, as on Windows Environment Natively? Provided I will also need linux for Symbian Programming.

Is running OS virtually as good as running natively for Programming Work?
AND is it possible to have Windows and Linux Both on Mac? good Enough for work..
_ or is there anyway out? Please Advice!

Looking forward for your suggestion.

Thank-you.
